Illustrated Price List of Photographic Goods, George Murphy (New York, NY), dated April 1898, ~6 ½"x10", 160pp

This is a large catalog having much professional equipment.  There are three field view cameras, one of which, the American Optical Co. Landscape Camera, Reversible, is referred to by a house name, the Eagle Reversible Back View Camera, and the other two of which, the Rochester Optical Co. Standard ad Empire State, are referred to as their normal names, the Standard and Empire State.  Oddly enough, the description of the Standard Camera, having no engraving, is described in words as having a back similar to the Ideal and Universal, two other ROC models, despite the fact that they do not appear in this catalog.
